Chapter 574: Present
Zhao Anan did not want to speak with him, but seeing that he followed her all the way out of the hospital, she could not help but say, “Why are you following me? Get out of my way. I hate you!”
“I think you look good today.” Zheng Jing did not sound upset. Instead, his words were flirty.
Zhao Anan threw a dubious look at him. “You forgot to take your drugs today?”
Before Zheng Jing could respond, she said with an expression of realization. “Oh, I see. You have finished your drugs, so you are here to get some new ones from Mu Qing. Go and get them! No wonder I saw a set of drugs on his table to cure mentally-disturbed people. They are for you, right?”
Goddamn it! What a ruthless girl!
Zheng Jing decided not to push her anymore. So he patted Zhao Anan’s shoulders and threw a tempting proposal her way. “I have a lot of money on me today.”
“Really?” Zhao Anan became happy. Zheng Jing was indeed a walking ATM!
“Of course, but you can’t rob me of it. I am much better prepared today.”
“Then what do you want me to do?”
“What about... kissing me?”
“Bang!”
Zheng Jing got punched by Zhao Anan on his stomach.
“You shameless man! How dare you flirt with me?”
Zheng Jing was, however, a very sincere man. He had never flirted with any woman in such a way.
This was not his style, so when he said those lines, he felt very uncomfortable.
He had predicted that he would be punched. It would be strange if he had not.
If anyone dared to flirt Zheng Lun in this way, he would definitely have punched that person until he lost all his teeth.
Zheng Jing really did not like the role that Shangguan Ning had designed for him. He felt that he needed to talk with Shangguan Ning about getting the script modified.
If he continued to perform in this way, he would be killed by Zhao Anan sooner or later.
“Hey, I was just joking. You don’t have to hit me so hard.”
Zheng Jing’s face looked twisted. Zhao Anan had apparently not held anything back and landed a solid punch.
“Serves you right!” Zhao Anan did not sound guilty. Instead, she stretched out her hands and said, “Give me the money!”
“I can give you the money on one condition!”
“Oh yeah?” Zhao Anan showed a dangerous expression. “More conditions? Like the previous one?”
“No, no!” Zheng Jing denied instantly. “Help me pick a present.”
“Present? For whom? A man or a woman? Old or young? I am warning you, if you dare have a thought about someone else, I will beat you to death on behalf of Lun!”
“No, no way. I have no thoughts about any other woman. I am giving the present to an ordinary friend.”
“That’s ok, then! Let’s go. Lead the way, I will pick the present for you. Give me 100,000 yuan in exchange. That’s the deal.”
Zhao Anan also believed that Zheng Jing would not have fallen for anyone else. She did not care if he was going to get a present for someone. It could be for a birthday party or a wedding ceremony.
What she cared about was that a favor for Zheng Jing could get her money.
“100,000?! I am paid only a few thousands a month. You are forcing me to stop eating or drinking for a whole year to get this much.” Zheng Jing shook his head instantly.
“Forget it, you are too expensive for me. I can pick the present myself. I may be able to afford a more expensive present if I don’t hire you.”
Having said the words, Zheng Jing was about to leave.
Zhao Anan got annoyed. She gripped Zheng Jing’s arms and said with a smile, “Ah, don’t leave now! We can negotiate. The most important thing is that I am good at picking a present. You have got the right person.”
She smiled as she scanned Zheng Jing’s clothes, trying to see where he hid the money.
Money was indeed a wonderful thing!
If Zheng Jing had not given her the 2,000 yuan, she would not have been able to stalk Mi Xiaoxiao.
Without money, she would not have been able to drink coffee and eat the cake when she was at the cafe.
Zheng Jing was indeed a very nice man. He even offered her money when he knew that she had turned poor. She felt that she would go easy on him in the future.
She would end up cutting her source of income if she drove away the ATM!
They took the taxi and went to Zhao’s Jewelry.
“Why are we going to your store? It is too expensive. I don’t have that much money!”
“Why not? I am offering you the best in the market, understand? I can even get you a discount at my family’s store. Isn’t it good to save some money? You want a necklace, right? We have cheap but pretty ones!”
Zhao Anan dragged Zheng Jing into Zhao’s Jewelry and said to the staff, “Show the cheapest necklace and give the highest discount for this man.”
Zheng Jing’s face sunk.
He felt so humiliated when she spoke in this way.
His salary wasn’t high but Zheng Jing’s family was rich! Pei Xinhua had quite a few companies in her possession as well.
He was the best police officer in A City and received a big bonus each year. Why must he buy the cheapest necklace at the jewelry store?
The staff’s lips were twitching. She was trying hard to conceal the smile.
Zhao Anan was trying to set him up, right?
“Please, this is the discount area, all the necklaces are on 10% discount. Please look at them.”
The staff had not run into such a customer before, so she felt very disdainful towards these people, but still behaved professionally.
She did not know Zhao Anan, and thought that Zhao Anan was just joking when she said that the store was hers.
Zheng Jing bought the present at Shangguan Ning’s request. He was just doing the work, so he did not care about the price and the style. Hence he asked Zhao Anan for help.
Zhao Anan picked the cheapest one and asked the staff to give her a 50% discount. But the staff did not agree with it.
“My name is Zhao Anan, Zhao Zhao is my mother, Zhao Fo is my grandmother. I own this store, why can’t I get a 50% discount for a friend?!”
The staff got slightly startled by what she said. She didn’t know if Zhao Anan was really who she said she was.
Zhao Anan was behaving rudely as if she really owned the store.
The staff, of course, knew about Zhao Fo and Zhao Zhao, and she even knew about Zhao Anan, except that she had never met her before.
But 50% off was an unreasonable discount rate, and even if Zhao Fo and Zhao Zhao were here, there would never be such a big discount given because that was way below the original cost.
